I didn't read through the entire thread regarding this disuccsion so maybe this has been mentioned, but the issue isn't going to be with "resolution" as you call it, rather there is a theory that moving ANY fader causes more mathematical equations to be done, and therefore hurts sound quality.

There have been lots of tests done on this and to the best of my memory the theory is not very accurate.

Let your ears decide. Not your eyes. Turn down your fader, turn OFF your screen and just listen. And then tell us all what you find, so we can sleep at night too!
